School Introduction

ELS Language Centers/Indianapolis is located on the campus of Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) which is a public university and is a 10-minute walk from downtown. IUPUI has a variety of degree programs including an LLM (in Law) in which qualified ELS graduates may receive scholarships. Indianapolis offers a big city with a comfortable small-town feeling. Indianapolis is known for its famous auto races - the Indianapolis 500 and the Grand Prix. Weekend trips to cities such as Chicago and Cleveland are frequently arranged.

ESL Program Introduction

ELS Language Centers students may choose either an Intensive English Program or Semi-Intensive English Program offering 12 levels of instruction (from Beginners to highly Advanced "Masters" levels). The Intensive Program of 30 lesson hours per week is the faster way to meet your study goals - whether personal, professional, or university-specific. The Semi-Intensive Program of 20 lesson hours per week meets these goals at a different pace and allows for more time in the afternoon for exploration and leisure. Both programs include English Structure & Speaking Practice (with grammar) and Reading & Writing and use the communicative method of in-class instruction. Both also include an Individualized Learning Plan through new state-of-the-art Language Technology centers.

The Intensive English Program afternoon classes include Skills Enhancement "electives", which vary according to student interest. Sample Skills Enhancement classes may include TOEFL Preparation Program, Business English, Pronunciation, American Idioms, Contact America or other classes.

In addition, students in the Advanced ELS levels (Intensive program) have the chance to take IUPUI courses in Business Communications and can receive a certificate.
